Bcoulal's Journal, 29 Feb 16

Got a friend that's 305 lbs with 40% bodyfat. He's been following my diet mantras and posts on Facebook for over 2 years, but didn't start believing me until I presented real results last year.

He's 305 lbs with 40% bodyfat, which means he has 122 lbs of blubber on it. He's temporarily lost weight before but doesn't know how to keep it off. He's a gym fanatic, weight trains like a beast, does some cardio, but is still 305 lbs.

He's 6ft tall, 29 years old, and is 305 lbs. That's an unacceptable weight in any culture (except for Sumo Wrestling and maybe Strongman competitions?). It's not even the weight that worries me, it's the amount of bodyfat that has me perturbed.

I mean we're not friends friends, I've seen him in public a few times in the past. When I say public, I meant the club. That's another thing I no longer do. I no longer drink alcohol, which has relieved me of lots of visceral fat btw, since alcohol turns into visceral fat in the liver after metabolism.

Anyways, he asked me for advice again. This year my goal was to be nicer to people, so I gave him a better version of the advice I gave him last year. I chopped it up into edible pieces and made it simple and straight to the point. His goal is to lose 70 lbs.

At first he asked me to help him and I asked him "Do you have a deadline? If you don't then I can't help you because you're not that serious about losing your weight." Well, we now have a deadline and he has 6 months to lose 70 lbs. I'm not there to monitor his diet, but I hope he has enough integrity to follow my advice verbatim.

Hopefully he'll "get it" this time. Sounds like he might need a support group (like being on here) and that might take a little stress off of you from being the only support.

Yes did u suggest he log on here? Hope he cuts the booze. I did and I have seen awesome results. Funny I just posted about LBM. I want to have someone measure me with the caliper though as I have several dif results with the measurements for my body fat. Good job on being nice to him. You can't do it for him but at least u paved the way. 👍🏻
